Halloween 2013

Titus was Woody from Toy Story this year. He loved being Woody. We thought we would get him the movie for his birthday, since he wore the movie out when he was younger. He hated it. Apparently, Woody and Buzz argue a lot. It was a good thing he discovered that after Halloween.

Do you want the year to year Halloween comparison?

Next year, I probably won't be able to reuse his hat and bandana.

Titus' 1st Jack-O-Lantern

I didn't think Titus would be into the whole cleaning the pumpkin out and I really didn't think he would participate much with the whole making jack-o-lanterns thing. Last year we painted pumpkins and he hated it. He hates getting dirty and I have to wash his hands constantly, but he surprised me. He even took some of the pumpkin gunk out himself. He loved poking holes in the pumpkin, but this year I did a majority of the work still. He picked the face he wanted out of a book we checked out from the library. Here are pictures:

Carving the Pumpkin

I talked Aaron into coloring on his with a permanent marker. Here are the final products.

Hayride

Our friends Kayla and Liam went with us to Huber's Pumpkin Patch. Titus loved it all and Liam loved everything, except for the pumpkin patch. It was a very chilly day, but we still had fun.

Bye, Bye Pumpkin Patch.

The Letter "D"

Titus was coloring on his dry erase board that we use for learning letters and he drew this all by himself.

He was quite proud of himself.

I don't think he purposely set out to draw it. He drew it and then noticed what letter it looked like. His mommy still had a proud moment.

Me - You want to be a big dad?

Titus - No, I want to be a big boy.

Me - You want to be a big boy?

Titus - No, just like this (as he points to himself).

Fun in the Water

I wanted to call this post Redneck bathtub or Redneck Swimming Pool, but I live in Kentucky now. I'm not sure if it would be appropriate.
